The simplicity of Gorilla is attractive but for better compression ratios without too much extra compute I'd instead recommend Sprintz: https://github.com/dblalock/sprintz.
The downside is that (a) Sprintz requires the data to be quantised to fixed point integers, usually fine if the data is coming out of a sensor of some sort and (b) the Huffman coding step of Sprintz requires dynamic memory allocation, whilst Gorilla is almost trivially implemented without it.
